This might help you with long arguments using getopt:

Code:
eval set -- $(getopt -l edit:,list:,mount:,unmount:,help,debug -o e:l:m:u:hd -- "$@")

while true
do
   name="$1"
   shift
   case $name in
       -e|--edit) server_info="$1"; shift ; mode=edit ;;
       -l|--list) server_info="$1"; shift ; mode=list ;;
       -u|--unmount) server_info="$1"; shift ; mode=unmount ;;
       -d|--debug) DEBUG=true ;;
       -h|--help) printf "$help_text" ; exit $RET_HELP ;;
       --) break ;;
       *)  echo "Internal error!" ; exit 1 ;;
   esac
done
echo options left $#
